Thanks for Encouragement

I've been thinking lately about my posts on progress with Weight Watchers. I just feel it's necessary to clarify something about them.

I do not post my progress to brag about myself, or show off, or anything like that. I post my progress because then I feel accountable to everyone who reads and comments about it. When I look at the comments posted, it encourages me to continue to work hard on my weight loss, because people care about me, and want to succeed. I don't actually like sharing how much I've lost, because I have so MUCH to lose, and it's embarrassing that I've let myself get this big.

But I just wanted to say "THANK YOU" to those who comment with words of encouragement and congratulations. It helps me each week to be mindful of what I eat (even if I sometimes ignore what I should be doing).

So I will continue to post my progress (more good than bad, though), and continue to benefit from the support of my commenters. Thanks!
